SOLUTION DRIVEN REPRESENTATION An Experienced Houston Business Lawyer

Mr. Andrew Weisblatt has practiced business law since 1992. He has successfully represented a wide variety of clients from one-person start-up ventures to multi-national corporations employing hundreds of people in multiple countries. He has learned from his years of experience that no two problems are exactly alike, and every situation has a solution. He is a business attorney who is skilled at finding common ground and bringing parties together, when possible, to achieve remarkable results. Mr. Weisblatt goes into every case with a commitment to high integrity and professionalism, and he prides himself on being accessible to his firm's clients and providing clear answers that are easy to understand.

Whether it's drafting contracts, reviewing real estate options, advising on business taxes, evaluating potential mergers and acquisitions or assisting with personnel matters, an experienced Houston business lawyer can be a valuable asset to a company’s leadership.

From 2005 through 2009, Mr. Weisblatt was in-house counsel and chief operating officer of a multi-national corporation in the steel products industry. That in-house position provided valuable insight into how businesses work and what they truly need from their lawyers – both in-house and outside counsel.

In 2009 Mr. Weisblatt started The Weisblatt Law Firm, PLLC with the goal of creating a special law firm that could cater to a few clients and provide them with the best legal representation and client service. It is a matter of great pride to Mr. Weisblatt that the very first customer who hired him when he started in 1992 was also the first client of The Weisblatt Law Firm, PLLC, thereby continuing a many-decades-long relationship.

Mr. Weisblatt is an attorney with years of legal knowledge and hands-on business experience. He would be glad to talk by phone to learn more about your business and the legal challenges you face.

Leading a business is stressful enough without having legal issues arise. Complaints and legal forays raise the temperature in any CEO’s office. One of the reasons Mr. Weisblatt receives such positive reviews and high client ratings is that he is both highly knowledgeable and personable. He is easy to talk to and relaxed, and he knows how to listen closely and ask the right questions. If you must interact with a business lawyer in Houston, let it be one who is pleasant, respectful, honest and diligent in meeting your legal needs.

This is one of the reasons why Mr. Weisblatt maintains long-term professional relationships with many business leaders and receives a lot of new cases through client referrals.

When dealing with a case, each client gets his full attention and uncompromising commitment. For a get-to-know conversation, call us at (713) 666-1981.

A Houston Business Lawyer Can Save Your Business Money

Businesses of every size can experience concrete benefits from the help of a business attorney. The right attorney can help prevent litigation whenever possible, which can protect your bottom line, because litigation can be costly. Consider the following statistics:

  • Small-business owners typically spend $3,000 to $150,000 annually in fees for litigation, according to the Small Business Association. Many of these businesses struggle to recover from the litigation costs, and many owners make major adjustments to operations in order to recover the costs.
  • 36 major corporations in the SBA study spent an average of about $113 million per year on litigation costs. This adds up to $4.1 billion dollars in legal costs and liability that might have been preventable with the right legal representation.

Legal disputes can significantly hurt smaller businesses, especially if owners did not set up their companies to limit their own personal liability. A business lawyer can help you limit liability from the very start by forming the appropriate business entity for your situation. Our firm can also counsel you to make sure you do not expose yourself to unnecessary liability during the course of business. Overall, the services of the right lawyer can cut costs substantially in the long run. Our firm can assist with legal protections, ongoing guidance, and efficient dispute resolution. Without the right legal advice, you may suddenly find your company facing a costly dispute, and your business may be in jeopardy.

Does My Company Need a Business Lawyer in Houston?

If another party started a legal dispute with your business, you should not wait any longer to discuss the matter with an experienced business attorney in Houston. The longer you wait, the more the dispute can escalate, and you may find yourself facing costly litigation or unnecessary liability or losses.

You should also remember that a dispute does not have to exist for your company to benefit from a discussion with a knowledgeable lawyer. A Houston business law firm can evaluate the state of your business and make sure all necessary legal protections are in place to avoid any legal issues down the road. Preventing legal disputes can save your company resources and allow you to focus on running and growing your operations.

If you are still wondering whether to contact a business lawyer, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do you want to make a business idea a reality? Are you trying to get a startup off the ground?
  • Are you looking to lease or purchase commercial real estate?
  • Are you considering a merger and acquisition or the sale of your business?
  • Are you and other owners seeking to dissolve a business?
  • Are you familiar with all local, state, and federal laws to ensure compliance?

Attorney Andrew Weisblatt can help with any of the above legal matters and more.

When people start businesses, they often believe that they can cut costs by trying to navigate the legal landscape on their own. However, this can lead to costly errors that could be completely avoided by seeking advice from an attorney. Even if you believe your business is a well-oiled machine, you may not realize there are noncompliance issues or contract deficiencies that may lead to a full-blown legal dispute and litigation at any moment.

If a legal dispute has already arisen, your next call should be to The Weisblatt Law Firm, PLLC. We have tools to try to resolve disputes in the most efficient way possible, but we will also do what it takes to protect the rights and assets of your business. Call us at (713) 666-1981.
